Letter: Support current fire commissioners

The Columbian
Published: September 22, 2011, 5:00pm

The East County Volunteer Fire Fighters Association endorses the current fire commissioners for re-election.

Commissioners John Clancy, Jack Hoober, and Gary Larson have served this community with integrity for many years. Their long-term vision and careful use of tax revenue have helped grow the fire district to meet the needs of our expanding community, while always staying within budget. Their stewardship of the fire district has resulted in the agency being financially stable — even in these tough economic times.

As president of the East County Volunteer Fire Fighters Association, I urge you to join your East County Fire and Rescue volunteers in voting to re-elect commissioners Clancy, Hoober and Larson.
